Situated in the very heart of Croyde village Barncott is a wonderfully spacious detached property just a ten minute stroll from the beach. It is presented in a country cottage style, featuring wood-beamed ceilings and tastefully exposed feature walls, where the original stone work is visible. Barncott offers an ideal home from home for larger families, two families or groups of friends.
In an ideal position adjacent to the popular Thatched Barn Inn, a few steps lead up to the front entrance and into the ample hallway with attractive flagstone floor.
The large kitchen has views over the garden and leads seamlessly to the cottage dining room which is appropriately the hub of the house - and where everyone can gather for convivial meals and wander out onto the garden through French doors.
The lounge, which one accesses from the dining room or hallway, is furnished with ample seating and in rich colours of burnt ruby. The true cottage ceilings, exposed stone and feature fireplace will warm the cockles of your heart, while complimented by the flagstone floor.
There is a large family bathroom downstairs, complete with WC, basin, bath and overhead shower.
Upstairs is tastefully decorated and each room hosts superb Victorian beds. The rooms are individually themed and all feature views over the countryside. Catering for many combinations of families, bedroom 1 has a large double bed (with en-suite shower room), a large double in room 2, while room 3 has a double and features a ‘kiddie’ loft for exploring. The final room upstairs has a single and is perfect for Gran, Granddad or an older sibling.
French doors open onto a garden with ample decking for entertainment and which includes patio furniture and a BBQ. Having lovely views over the surrounding countryside and featuring a large Hot Tub, the fully enclosed rear garden is ideal for a leisurely barbecue with the sound of the waves in the distance. Younger guests will love the space to run and play. At Barncott everything that you could need for a relaxing beachside holiday is on your doorstep.
From Barncott, you are within short walking distance from the famous unspoilt Croyde beach and close to walking trails, wind and kite surfing, birding and wild flowers, golf, horse riding and the perfect surf. Croyde is a naturist’s paradise with its abundance and diversity of fauna and flora, the wildlife, flowers, birds, dolphins, marine life and cream teas.
A little further afield why not explore the beautiful Exmoor National Park or visit one of the many family attractions. However you spend your time, this welcoming home will be a place where memories are made and you will never want to leave.
